Come one Jasen, we know you were barracking for Old Blighty

Hope this proves 50 over cricket isn't dead. More entertainment than T20 IMO

I think the T20 has shown 12 an over is gettable for the last few overs, you just need somebody who can execute.

Gave the poms a bit of a look in then BAM ripped it away

I normally barrack for Australia in all sports as Australia is my home and the only exception is Rugby Union because that's my game.
For reasons unknown I decided to barrack for England this Ashes but it was really hard because I've been away for so long and don't really know any of the team whereas I know all of the Aussie team as they are on the TV all the time.
I think I am the jinx for the Ashes as who ever I go for looses.
I have picked the loosing team every ashes for the last 24 years.

What a finish

krisandkev · « **Reply #409 on:** January 17, 2014, 09:35:12 PM »

I thought they were gone. I felt sorry for the poms. Well for a second anyway. Yep, what a finish. Kevin

you felt sorry for the POMS

i was loving every minute of it. at 9 wickets down and over 30 runs still to get, there's no way we should have won that game

oldmate · « **Reply #413 on:** January 17, 2014, 10:14:46 PM »

I'll say. Myself and 1000 others that left with 4overs to go can't believe Aussies won.

Awesome finish... I turned it off and went and washed my Prado when we were about 7/230.

Just jumped on my iPad and see we have won... I went to the Cricket Australia website and watched the last 2 overs.

Was at the game. Thought we were gone.

Great finish. Atmosphere was fantastic

Not so great for the poms on the buses and trains on the way home

Jasen · « **Reply #419 on:** January 18, 2014, 01:04:20 AM »

There was no shame in that game, it was very close and could have gone either way.
Most Poms will be thinking at least we didn't get thrashed!

Yes that is some consolation but you know what they say, whether you win by an inch or a mile it is still a win. 10-0 is still alive

How to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

Had friends over and were in the garage with the tv on in the back ground. No one had taken much notice of the game until Faulkner hit 2 six's in a row to halve the run chase in the 2nd last over.

Reminded me of Micheal Bevan's effort back in 95 against the Windies. Was sitting in Apollo Bay Hotel at the time and not many in the place were watching the game. The last 2 overs however the whole place was glued to the TV cheering, awesome atmosphere.

13-0 is on the cards don't forget the t20s.

For all that missed it you can find the video, legal. http://www.cricket.com.au/video/latest

Cook couldn't front the media conference what a bloody coward people may give clark crap but at least he had the balls to take it on the chin when things were bad.

Jensen repeat after me Aussie Aussie Aussie Oi Oi Oi, you are now an Australian!

Maybe Broncos11 could give us a précis of the match as the bugger was there with his young fella! I still think Oz was in control strategically. Well.....I do after the event
